Realme XT 64MP camera phone's specs, design revealed

It has not been officially launched yet, but we feel that we know the Realme XT so well now. All we need is the price and some hands-on time with the smartphone.

Earlier today, the former OPPO subsidiary held a briefing in China to reveal the Realme XT’s specs and design. We know that it is the company’s first device to sport a 64-megapixel sensor and that it will be paired with three other rear cameras. But what are they?

Apparently, the ISOCELL Bright GW1 provided by Samsung is mated to an 8-megapixel ultra-wide shooter, a 2-megapixel dedicated macro lens, and a 2-megapixel depth sensor.

The selfie camera, on the other hand, is the same 16-megapixel one found in the Realme 5 Pro. The only difference is it’s not a pop-up; it is housed in a waterdrop notch at the top of the 6.4-inch AMOLED screen with an under-display fingerprint sensor.

Contrary to rumors, the Realme XT is not powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 855 Plus, but is instead fitted with a Snapdragon 712. The midrange chip is coupled with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, though it’s possible that other memory configurations will be offered in markets like the Philippines — if and when it does arrive here.

The battery is big at 4,000mAh, plus there’s support for VOOC 3.0 fast charging. Expect the operating-system version to be ColorOS 6.0 based on Android 9 Pie, too.

Design-wise, we think the Realme XT looks like a Huawei P30 Pro with four cameras. It seems like a premium phone, what with its 3D curved glass and white and blue gradient colors.

Which 64-megapixel camera phone will become available first — this or the Redmi Note 8 Pr, which will be launched August 29? We’ll find out as soon as the former becomes official in September.
